Grange Finances.
ITatterXang, in his address
before the Texas State Grange,
took up the financial problem in
its relation of capital to labor.
He said it concerns the agricnl
tural interest to decide, whether,
in tbe midst of a financial dis
tress, the contraction of the cir
culating medintn shall go on,
britiginp ruin and bankruptcy to
every jural homestead; whether
the ancient silver dollar shall be
-overthrown that the bondhold
ers might hold a saturnalia in
wrecks ol fortune and amid the
cries-of starving thousands, etc.,
rie. The Temedy suggested is
'tlie repeal of the resumption act
and tho rcinouetizution of sil-
vcr.

In the State Grange meeting
on Thursday a number of reso
lutions on different subjects
were introduced and referred.
Several resolutions were intro
duced censuring the course of
the Examiner and Patron, and
one or two propositions wore
raade to publish an entirely ag
ricultural and Grange organ.
A proposition was submitted
changing the time of meeting
from January to August., (Japt.
J. 31. Williams, of "Washington
county, introduced a Eeries of
resolutions regarding the finan
ces, tfiat were adopted by the
"Washington, county council and
published in the Banner some
weeks atro. Also, a resolution
declaring the tfix on farm pro
duce wrong, 'and demanding its
rejreal if constitutional. The
following- amendment will bo
incorporated in the constitu
tion : The minimum for mem
bership in a subordinate grange
should be men, three dollars

Lines. Stains in linen can of

with sott 6oapr alter which a

proces may need to be repeated
several times. The eoap and

pure cold water.
Whitening TriK Skin. A
mixture ot lemon juice and
powdered borax is a tine whf to

used only in warm weather.
This is odmirably suited to
those ladies whose general
health is not good, and who
have, consequently, bluish
bands, in which f he blue veins
show too strongly.

the first, ren
growth is a good suppi
cstable matter in the soil. V
ever be its fnnctiou whether
mechanically improving the tex
ture ot the soil, or increasing its
power of absorbing gases and
moisture, or furnk-liing solvents
ot nnaeailable compounds, or
directly snp'yiny food to growing
plant-, or whatever it may he
experience amply demonstracs its
paramount importance. .Nt ro
tation of crops should be adopt
ed, therefore, which do-s not
keep the soil tilled with liumns.
This should never bo lost bhrht
ot and more especially is the
warning needed because the pre
ponderance of hoed and plough
ed crops in onr husbandry, and
onr long hot summers, both tend
to consumeand reduce the veg
etable matter in our soils far
more rapidly than in cooler lat
itudes. A cotton crop holds an
unexeeqiablo pre-eminence in
this respect; the frequent piongh
ings late in the season, when
chemical chances proceed most
-actively, gives free acccesof air
to tlie soil and hastens greatly
the decomposition of vegetable
matter. As a consequence, more
bare fields, with soil destitute
ot humus, are to be seen in the
cotton States than elsewhere.
Make it then the first and most
controlling feature of your plans
to arrange crops with rcterence
to this point intordnciog small
grain, or grass, or rest, promin
ently in your rotation.
DEEP PULVERIZATION AND MIHNQ
OF TUE SOIL.
Tne next most imnortant
condition h, to have a deep layer
ot soil loose anil finely commin
uted that tho roots ot plants
may ramify and extend without
obstruction. AH rcogniso the
importance ot this- but some
think they have secured it by
ploughing two or three inches
deep, and some suppose they
have ploughed a foot deep when
if a level is struck, and the fur
row properly measure i. four in
ches would be the maximum
Five inches should be tha mini
um: the maximum we are not
prepared to give. Gardeners
generally stir the soil one foot in
depth, sometime two or more.
Their experience shows that
Slants are benefitted by such
eep breakings the fanner ad
mitting this, asks will it pay him
That will depend on circumstan
ces. It-he proposes to pursue
the intensive system and till ar
range to incorporate- vegetable
matter and manure as devp'as
he breaks the land, we have no
hesitation in saying it will pay
to go at least a loot deep but, if
he is dealing with a thin soil, and
and a heavy subsoil destitute of
vegetable mattcr.it is very doubt
ttul. The best plans is to use
the turn plough, running it one
or two ienhes deeper every year,
and have a heavy coat of vegeta
ble matter to turn under every
time. This will eventually make
a.soiI of uniform character to the
full depth it is broken one
through which the fertilizing ele
ments are thoroughly mixed and
readily found by the roots with
out a long and weakening search.
This is also tho most inexpen
sive plan, requiring little addi
tional straiu on the taam to run
the share only one or two inches
deeper in the unbroken subsoil
each year
Hoo Cholera. An Indiana
farmer lost two of his fattened
hogs by the cholera. As soou
as he found that the cholera
was among his hog, he began
to give to all those that seemed
sick strong garden pepper tea,
and to every gill of tea he ad
ded two tablespoonfuls ot coal
oil. All his sick hog3 have re
covered, and are now doing
well.
Apple Sauce. Pare, quar
ter, and core theappels ; boil in
jot enough water to cover ; do
.not stir them when cooking;
keep covered ; when tender
drain off the water, and when
the cooked apples are dry nib
them through a fine sieve ; then
sweeten a very little with white
sugar; sprinkle on more sugar
when serving if desired.
"Varikt desiram e in f. co.
We must ii'it restrict ourselvas
to a few articles of food, b.it
must have a great variety foods
to select from: we mnst not ptr
takeofthe stine ft'-e day after
day, bnt mnt vary it as much
as possible. Only with a varied
ami alternating dietry can we be
sure that what is lacking in one
food will be supplied in another,
and what we fail to get to day
we shall have to-morrow. .What
is commonly regarded as simply
the result of a sKilcdpa!ate-tbe
repugnance excited by thesteady
recurrence of the same dish is

After it has laid two or tiree
weeks longer in the pickle it i
taken oat and hung up in tno
kitchen to dry. If "possible. 1
is hung on poles placed across
the ceiling; and in two months
it is enred enough to eat, but.
is better in three months.
Early in the spring it is sewed
up in cotton cloth-, and brushed
over with a thick whitewash,
to preserve it from filed.
Hams and bacon are usually
smoked in houses built tjr that
purpose, but they can also be
MiioKcd in large, oiu-iasmoueu
chimneys, by burning corn on
the cob in" tliiTfireplace. In
Hatnbnrg, Germany, the smok
ing is done in upper rooms of
large buildings, and the smoke
is carried through tubes from
fires in the cellar. The smoke
being dry and cool when it eu-tf-rs
the room, the meat is of a
much superior flavor than when
hung near the tire. The cele
brated Westphalia pickle is
made with six pounds of rock
salt, two pounds ot powdered
loaf sugar, and three ounces ot
saltpetre, dissolved in three gal
lons of water and boiled till all
scum is removed. When quite
cold it is poured on the meat,
aud every p?rt must be kept
under the brine. In four of
five weeks the hams are ready
for the snioke-houac. This
pickle can be used several times,
by boiling it over to remove all
scum and adding a small amount
of its ingredients.
Hams should be thoroughly
washed oefore being pickled in
order to remove all the blood,
and then be wiped dry. After
being smoked they cm be kept
tor several years, it, after sewing
them up in old cotton cloth,
they are closely packed in ashes
or powdered charcoal. They
can also be kept in chests filled
with bran or oat chafi. A two
year old ham makes a much
finer dish than one recently
smoked.
